India women's national Cricket Team vs Australia women's national Cricket Team Women's World Cup 2025: After a narrow defeat against South Africa, Harmanpreet Kaur and Co. are focused on their biggest clash in the round-robin stage against Australia at ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam. The three-wicket defeat against South Africa might have dented India's confidence, but against Australia, they can't afford to repeat the same mistakes.

The hosts could consider including an additional spinner, especially after Nadine de Klerk mentioned that South Africa’s strategy focused on tackling India’s pacers, given the spin-friendly conditions in the previous game.

Experienced left-arm spinner Radha Yadav, who also contributes with the bat, might be a likely inclusion, potentially replacing Rana. However, with Australia’s lineup featuring two left-handers — centurion Beth Mooney and opener Phoebe Litchfield — India may think twice before making that change.

Teams:

India: Harmanpreet Kaur (c), Smriti Mandhana (vc), Pratika Rawal, Harleen Deol, Jemimah Rodrigues, Richa Ghosh, Uma Chetry, Renuka Singh Thakur, Deepti Sharma, Sneh Rana, Sree Charani, Radha Yadav, Amanjot Kaur, Arundhati Reddy, Kranti Gaud.

Australia: Alyssa Healy (c), Darcie Brown, Ash Gardner, Kim Garth, Heather Graham, Alana King, Phoebe Litchfield, Tahlia McGrath, Sophie Molineux, Beth Mooney, Ellyse Perry, Megan Schutt, Annabel Sutherland, Georgia Voll, Georgia Wareham.
